What is this Chaga mushroom?
Chaga, or chaga, is one of the best known and most useful tree parasitic mushrooms. It may seem that you have often encountered it in nature. But in fact, chaga grows very slowly, it reaches a diameter of 10 cm only in 10-15 years. Therefore, its stocks are quite limited, taking into account the growing demand for the medicinal properties of the mushroom. And meeting her is not so easy.
Chaga gets into the structure of the tree due to damage to the bark and after a few years, after infecting it, forms a fruiting body that looks like an outgrowth of coal.
Chaga is separated from the tree and chopped into pieces. The smaller the fraction of the mushroom, the easier it is to prepare useful infusions from it. Chaga ground into powder is poured with warm water and infused for 30-60 minutes, if the pieces are large, it may take up to 12 hours.
